Sense About Science

VoYS is a unique and dynamic network organized by Sense About Science of early career researchers across Europe committed to playing an active role in public discussions about science. By responding to public misconceptions about science and evidence and engaging with the media, policymakers and the public, this active community of 3,000+ researchers is changing the way the public and the media view science and scientists.which hosts regular training workshops and works with young researchers to build an active community to “Stand Up for Science”

Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science

This center offers many forms of training for scientists hoping to improve their communication skills and connect with family, friends and colleagues to tell clear and vivid stories about their work. We have trained nearly 10,000 scientists in The Alda Method™ since 2009, successfully using improvisational theater exercises and message design workshops to address the common pitfalls of science communication. Please browse our website to learn more about the following training offerings.

This class develops the abilities of students to communicate science effectively in a variety of real-world contexts. It covers strategies for dealing with complex areas like theoretical physics, genomics and neuroscience, and addresses challenges in communicating about topics such as climate change and evolution. Projects focus on speaking and writing, being an expert witness, preparing briefings for policy-makers, writing blogs, and giving live interviews for broadcast, as well as the creation of an interactive exhibit for display in the MIT Museum.
